-How to create HBPP.LIB
-
-This file should contain preproc.c, hbpplib.b32, bldhbpp.bat,
-testpre.prg, bld32exe.bat and hbpplib.txt (this file<g>).
-
-In order to create and test this library, you should put:
-
-- preproc.c in \HARBOUR\SOURCE\HBPP directory;
-- hbpplib.b32 and bldhbpp.bat in \HARBOUR directory;
-- testpre.prg and bld32exe.bat in \HARBOUR\TESTS\WORKING directory;
-- hbpplib.txt in \HARBOUR\DOC directory;
-
-Then, you need to run bldhbpp.bat to create HBPP.LIB on
-\HARBOUR\LIBS\B32 directory. Note that by now the only makefile is
-for compiling with Borland C compilers. I kindly ask who has other
-compilers/environments to write the missing makefiles please!
-
-To test testpre.prg you just need to go TESTS\WORKING dir and make
-it using HB32 TESTPRE.

+=============================
+- Harbour won't currently compile with MSVC in 64 bit C mode.
+  Use C++ mode instead with commands 'set HB_BUILD_MODE=cpp' 
+  and 'make_vc.bat')
+- Contrib hbfimage won't currently compile on Linux systems.
